Why get_seller needs a policy

The get_seller tool performs a query/lookup operation to fetch seller information. It has no side effects and returns data without altering system state. While the server handles payment-related operations (suggested by 'Agent-to-Agent Payment Protocol'), this specific tool is purely informational and does not move money, modify data, or execute external operations.

From the tool's definition Tool retrieves a seller by ID using 'Retrieve a seller by Getnet seller_id'. The verb 'Retrieve' indicates a read-only operation with no modification, creation, or deletion of data.

How to control get_seller

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Mcp Ap2, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_seller:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_seller": {}
  }
}

get_seller is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
